Hunting Alone

[Trillium]

((Eh...I just needed a place for Trillium to pop back in, as the other threads seemed like an akward place for her to show up. Anyone can join this. : P ))

Trillium had taken a turn as she approached the Mistclan camp and headed down a hill to the immense field of green grass. Though not nearly as sheltering, the soft plants supplied very numerous ammounts of prey. The van sniffed the air, warily, before stepping out into the expanse. It seemed that there was a very faint scent of other clans around this place. Perhaps it had been fought over frequently in past moons.

The transition from being alone to a gathering had been quite immense, and the escape to hunt was quite a relief. Stepping forward a few paces, she scanned the field with three senses: Sight, hearing, and scent.

[Featherstar]

Night stalked closer to her prey. that's what she considered this cat to be, prey. The van hadn't noticed the black she-cat's presence though she had seemed weary. Foolish cat.Night thought. She kept moving, so light a mouse only noticed her presence when she breathed on it. Then it ran. Night ignored it. Mice were not what she'd come for. She was now right behind the she-cat she sought to capture. Night lept and landed squarely on the other's shoulders, forcing her to the ground. Boo. Night almost laughed.

[Trillium]

If Trillium could have, she would have jumped out of her skin the moment the foreign cat made contact. The shock was immense, as she had just let down her guard. A fleeting moment passed by and she realized that her attacker hadn't yet sought to injure her. Only then did a tingling fear set in.

"Who are you...?" she managed to gasp in her surprise. She didn't put up a fight just yet.

[Featherstar]

I am Bringer of Night, Night for short.Night laughed, daring this cat to call her by her shorted name.I was hoping that you would come along with me peacefully but, if I have to hurt you and force you to come, I will.Night was actually having fun threatening this cat. That was how she got her kicks, tormenting innocent creatures. Well, some are just like that.So are you going to come along quietly?Night kind of hoped this cat would put up a fight. That way the black tom wouldn't be able to criticize her for not putting up a fight. Night extended her claws and place them near the other cat's head, ready to rip it off if nee be.

[starcrossed]

Honeymist watched, astonished, while Trillium and this 'Night' cat sat, their eyes like stone. She narrowed her eyes; Trillium was a friend! She narrowed her eyes and padded boldly up to Night, her eyes like ice.

Who do you think you are?! she snarled before barreling into Night, her claws swiping around blindly.

[Featherstar]

Night almost smiled. This cat's foolish attack would make her job easier than ever. She raked her claws across the other's face, causing blood pour from the wound. The new cat seemed to have to scheme to her fighting, she just swatted. Night suspected this warrior wasn't very experienced. That or she was just fighting out of rage. She butted her head against the other cat's and said coldly,Why, my name is Bringer of Night. What's your name?

[Bane]

(not really my place, but there's a bit of PPing going on. PPing being powerplaying, being making decisions for other people's characters. for example, you can't say that you caused someone's character an injury, that's up for them to decide. So you'd say "attempting to make blood pour from their wounds")

[Featherstar]

//OOC Sorry.~magical faerie comes and heals all wounds caused by Night.~

[starcrossed]

Honeymist shook coldly; Night was obviously stronger than she, so she lied down submissively, her tail tip twitching, blood seeping from a wound on her left shoulder, staining her golden pelt.

Why should I tell you? Honeymist snarled weakly, anger and fear battling in her blue gaze. She said she wouldn't fight phsically... but she knew it would do her no good for this Night cat to know her name. She narrowed her eyes, And what do you want with us?

But even as Honeymist asked the question, she dreaded the answer...

[Trillium]

Trillium quickly withdrew into a fighting position as "Night" left her to see to another cat that had appeared. She caught a quick glimpse of this cat, a young golden yellow female, a member of Mistclan, yet not one that she had met yet. Though Trillium was happy that the she-cat had come to help, she was also afraid that she would get hurt.

The van swished her red tail back and forth irritably, "If you think that either of us will 'come quietly', you're very wrong. Now, as she said, what do you want with us?"

[Featherstar]

All I want is for you two to come and see a friend of mine. Like I said, if you come quietly, you won't be injured, either of you. But, if you fight, there will be pain. To give her words that extra umph Night gave the cat under her paws a bash on the head. A pretty hard one too. The van seemed more willing to fight than the other. If she came quietly, the other would too.

[Trillium]

The bat that she took to her head momentarilly stunned Trillium, and her fur stood on end, her ears pinned to the back of her head. This cat was definitely up to something, and something dangerous at that. She reconsidered what she had just said, and thought for a moment that it would be safer to not put up a harsh fight. A hiss rising in her throat, she shoved her shoulders lightly back and forth as she waited to see what Honeymist would say.

[Featherstar]

//now I guess we wait for Jet

[Ripplemist]

There was a slight rustling sound in a nearby bush, and a small silver head popped out. Ripplekit had followed Honeymist, wanting to explore the MistClan camp as well. The kit's ears instantly flattened against her head as she watched some black she-cat attack two of her fellow clan mates. Her first thought was of going back to hiding, but she pushed the cowardly idea out of her head. Instead, she sprang out of the bush, hissing, all the while wondering how on earth she could manage to defeat the black cat when two fully-grown cats couldn't.

[Featherstar]

Good night, does your whole clan just follow each other around? My friend should be very pleased if I brought back three cats.As Night spoke she stuck out her paw, claws extended, ready to fight this third cat.


//OOC Sorry it's so short, I can't think right now.

[Ripplemist]

Ripplekit quivered with fear, as she too unsheathed her claws. It was her first real fight, and likely to be a really short one.

OoC: Same, lol.

[Featherstar]

Hey, I have an idea, Night suddenly leapt onto the little kit who'd appeared like she was going to try and fight. When the kit was under her claws, Night continued.You two come quietly, and I won't murder this precious little kit. Night almost laughed the wordsprecious little kit. If they didn't do as she said, Night would bring the black tom one of his clan cats dead.

[.::Umberwings]

"Hey...Ripplekit, where are..."

Having followed Ripplekit from camp, Umberkit froze, hearing the hiss from her new friend. The black she-kit lifted her head up in curiosity, to see the midnight-colored she-cat endangering the lives of her new Clanmates.

Immediately she bounded to her friend's side, not caring that the intruding cat was so close, hissing up a storm, semi-long black fur puffed out. Instead of waiting for the intruder to attack she charged forward, the hiss more of a snarl of absolute rage now. Why would she give the enemy a chance to attack, when she had that chance herself? Seh had to save Ripplekit, one of the first and few friends she ever had.

Needle-sharp claws swiped cunningly at the intruder's face, hopefully digging in painfully and cutting furrows into flesh. Umberkit then sprung away like black lightning, always moving. She knew, if this she-cat caught a hold of her she was finished, so she wisely used her smaller size and quicker paws to keep herself out of the way.

Yellow hues never stopped moving, as the mysterious black she-kit always looked for a new angle, and new opportunity to attack.

Let her present more of an issue than Ripplekit; hopefully the intruder would view her more as a prize and leave Ripplekit be.

"Fight me instead. Or are you scared?"

The taunt was malice-laden and hateful towards the dark she-cat.

[OOC-Sorry to just leap in, but this is something Umberkit would do to try to help Ripplekit and her clanmates. ^^

Edit-Darn you Featherstar for posting when I'm posting. ^^ *edits post*]

[Goldenblaze]

The young apprentice leaped from the stalks of light green grass, his fur fluffed like no other as he glared at the black cat in front of him. She was easily twice, if not thrice the young cat's size. But the look in his eyes showed no mercy from him. Surprisingly enough he'd made not a sound as he approached, and the adult cats would have scented him just seconds before he leaped in the center of the group, just two tail lengths from the black cat called 'Bringer of Night'.

He hissed. Leave my friends alone!! He shouted, his fur fluffing out even more. Obviously it was awkward for him. All his life he'd feared other cats, but he showed nor held the scent of being afraid as he stared this cat down. He spat, glaring. His tail twiched when he realized what he'd done. Either he'd just done something remarkably brave, or even more; something remarkably stupid. His eyes flashed to terror, then returned quickly to their cool and collected state. He waited.

[Ripplemist]

OoC: Everyone's trying to rescue me x3 Right now I'm assuming Night got distracted and went off after Umberkit, 'kay? 'Kay.

Ripplekit looked around, terror in her eyes. Her friends were here, and in great danger because of her! She struggled to her paws, and joined in the fight, attempting to leap on the black cat with her claws outstretched. "Don't hurt my friends, you foxdung!" she hissed fiercely.
